President Obama Goes Shopping At The Gap

President Barack Obama looks for gifts for his family with saleswoman Susan Panariello after stopping off at the GAP in New York

President Barack Obama shops at a GAP clothing store in Manhattan during his unannounced visit. Obama used the visit to talk about raising the minimum hourly wage standards and applauded the GAP, who earlier in the year announced it was raising minimum wage for its employees

Why are you so cynical? Obama is by all accounts very involved in his daughters' lives. SunSeeker Mar 2014 #6

That means a lot to our economy and to those 64,000 GAP workers' families.

Sad that you have a problem with that.

Untwist your undies and read it again...

I was cynical about a man with the free world on his shoulders knowing the sizes of 3 women off the top of his head instead of relying on an army of aides.

So go back to bed and and get out of the opposite side you left from this morning.

No need to resort to personal insults, either. No, I don't have my undies in a twist, and no, I'm not a "fella." What does that have to do with anything?
